<div xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"><p><span style="color: #006633;"><strong>I had a great Thanksgiving with my family.&nbsp; This Thanksgiving was the first time in a long while that my entire family was together in one house.&nbsp; My husband and kids were there as well as my parents and my younger brother Jason.&nbsp; My older brother Kevin was there with his wife and two boys.&nbsp; My father's mother and my mother's father were there as well.&nbsp; (Grandparents)&nbsp; :)</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #006633;"><strong>Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks.&nbsp; I am thankful for a lot of things but I am most thankful for the SMILE my mother had on her face the entire day. Why was she smiling? Becuase she the one thing she had been longing for, her entire family was together under one roof and no one was arguing!&nbsp; It was like we stepped backin time to when we were kids. We goofed off and shared memories.&nbsp; It was awesome!</strong></span></p>
<p><span style="color: #006633;"><strong>Sometimes we take things for granted (like family).&nbsp; Maybe we should step back and take a look at the world.....?&nbsp; Do you tell you family how grateful you are for the little things they do for you?&nbsp; Does your family know you are grateful to have them? </strong></span></p>

If you pass by any of the 3rd grade classrooms watch out for Lions, Tigers, and Bears...Oh my.. We have some outstanding dioramas. Our students put allot of hard work into making a habitat for an animal that they chose. I am very proud of all of our students for being so creative and hard working.

Keep up the good work.
